Chelsea boss, Graham Potter receives sack warning after Manchester City loss.

 Graham Potter has been warned that his Chelsea job could be on the line following the Blues' back-to-back defeats.

Former Tottenham Hotspur manager, Tim Sherwood, has warned Chelsea manager Graham Potter that he will be fighting for his job if the Blues’ wobble continues.

Sherwood also claimed that Chelsea are making summer signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang look ‘terrible’.

Following a bright start to life at Stamford Bridge, Potter’s tenure at Chelsea is going through a tricky period after the west London club picked just two points in their last four matches.

Potter’s men lost 4-1 to Brighton at the end of last month and also failed to bounce back on Sunday as they lost 1-0 to Premier League leaders Arsenal at home.

As a result of their latest results, Chelsea have now slipped five points outside the top-four positions and 13 points behind Arsenal on the log.

However, Sherwood believes Potter will be under immense pressure at Chelsea if they lose to Newcastle United next weekend in their final match before the mid-season break for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Speaking on The Kelly and Wrighty Show, Sherwood said: “You can’t argue they have not got the strike force. Chelsea are making two prolific goalscorers in the Premier League, Aubameyang and Lukaku, look terrible.

“They need to look at themselves. I know it’s two different mangers, it’s not all Potter’s fault, it’s Tuchel’s as well.

“But that control of the game is quite boring. I like control of the game and playing progressively forward, but they are not passing it forward quickly enough.

“It’s very difficult to get continuity when Graham Potter keeps making so many changes. You are not at Brighton anymore, you can’t experiment, you have not got time to do that.

“If you lose one more game, everyone will be looking at him. They are not playing well and we don’t know his best side.

“Everyone is in different positions, so they need some continuity and a way of playing. He’s trying to keep everyone happy, but at this rate he will be sacked and they will get a new manager in.

“He needs to start leaving big players out and that is what being a manager of a big club is about. I think he is trying to keep everyone happy, but they are not picking up enough points.”

Potter has also come under fire from Chelsea fans as well. Most of them want him sacked as some think he is clueless, and is not the right man for the Blues.

Former Chelsea Doctor, Eva Caneiro set to make dazzling return to football with new role in the 2022 World Cup revealed.

 Remember Eva Caneiro? The former Chelsea Doctor? The Blues could be seeing her back in football action again, this time, in the World Cup.  One of the major incidents during Mourinho's second spell at Chelsea was the 'dismissal' of the club's Doctor, Eva Caneiro at the time.  Per GiveaMeSport, on the opening weekend of the 2015-16 Premier League campaign, Mourinho clashed with the then-Chelsea physio after she ran onto the pitch alongside colleague Jon Fearn to treat the injured Eden Hazard. Mourinho’s side were drawing 2-2 against Swansea City and the game had entered injury-time when the incident occurred. The revered Portuguese coach was furious with the medics, telling reporters afterwards: “I wasn’t happy with my medical staff because even if you are a medical doctor or secretary on the bench, you have to understand the game.” Mourinho felt that the medical intervention had affected his team’s chances of scoring a late winner and securing two more points.

 NoNI Madueke reveals he got his self-confidence from his Nigerian dad, while telling the story of his childhood, and his rise to football success.  Chelsea star, Noni Madueke has disclosed in an interview, the source of his self-confidence. Recall, Chelsea had signed Madueke from PSV Eindhoven in the just concluded transfer window.

Worthy of mention is his mentality and self-confidence in his interviews at a young age. The Chelsea starlet has never stopped speaking of how much he will come good for Chelsea, with goals, and his ambition to win big for the club.  That determination to succeed certainly seems to have served Madueke well during his early career and later as he forged his own path through the professional game which has now brought him to Stamford Bridge. In the winger’s opinion, it is something he has always possessed, and he considers it an...
